@dtemkin EQB is a more fair price comparison to the Tesla Y. As someone who’s driven the EQB 350 AMG for over two years, I would agree with you that the Mercedes is more luxurious and more fun.

@kelly_tengi @EastMidRailway It’s also incorrect: it’s much faster to travel to Grantham on LNER (via Chesterfield tickets permitted to Grantham but no further north) and swap to EMids train from Grantham to Sheffield. But I decided to buy a new ticket via Donny anyway and will go back to driving to London).

@DrPeering @AMS_IX @netnod It’s an awful idea, my only regret is that I am not connected to amsix in order to facilitate a protest disconnection. It’s called cross-ix because it makes me cross. We’re choosing to make the internet non-resilient and garbage. :(

@wilco888 @martystronguk @kuenzler “Tier one” IPT is a fantastic advert for buying IPT from someone other than a tier one for most networks.

@MattChorley Well I enjoyed it even though you called me fat, and will try to come to Salford.

Reading “Beyond Everywhere” by @ennisgregory. I realise that this beautiful paragraph about a chance hallway encounter at an IEEE meeting describes the start of many of my important business and personal relationships, only at RIPE, UKNOF, NANOG, Peering fora, and IXP meetings!

@JBizzle703 @ETH4N3T And if you take the time to learn a templating engine and scripting language you can very rapidly repeat this mistake but much faster and with a much larger blast surface area. 😇

@khakparaghi Interconnected IXPs are an absolutely awful idea: smaller, local, distributed, disconnected ixps are better for encouraging nearest exit routing (therefore performance) and for reducing the size of blast surface during a system failure.

Question for those who know the North East of England better than I do. What’s fun for kids, South of Gateshead, North of York, and not something I can do in/around Sheffield? I was thinking Diggerland but am not a theme park lover & they’re rubbish with one year olds. Any tips?

@anurag_bhatia @tcsweetser Since propagation of 5G in the 3GHz band is so poor from outdoor to indoor, it’s pointless assuming it will work any better for cellular operators at 6GHz. Wi-Fi makes much more sense for this band.

@AntonKarneliuk Hi, are your slides from your netLdn talk online? May I see a copy if not? The subject is a regular topic of conversation at ASK4. Maybe we can bump into each other at a future Netops event to discuss how we use a similar stack to assure wireless experience.
